	Cherokee Texas Cemetery, formerly known as Hanna Cemetery San Saba County Texas
	Headstone of my Great (X4) Grandfather Texas Ranger Captain Johnny Williams at the Hanna Cemetery in Cherokee Texas. Killed by Comanche Indians. Grandfather of Sarah Ann ( Williams ) Hanna. Capt. Williams donated the land for the cemetery.
	Headstone of Judge David S. Hanna. Son of Jesse P. Hanna and brother of my Great Great Grandfather Robert Milton Hanna. David S. Hanna founded the town of Cherokee Texas.
	Headstone of Martha Jane ( Jones ) Hanna at the Hanna Cemetery in Cherokee Texas. Wife of David S. Hanna.
	Headstone of Josephine ( Hanna ) Rice at the Hanna Cemetery in Cherokee Texas. Daughter of David S. Hanna. Family members say that Josephine "sleeps between her two Grandmothers"; Elizabeth ( Williams ) Hanna and Martha ( Nilar/Jones ) Williams. Unfortunately neither of the two plots beside Josephine have readable headstones. As Capt. Johnny Williams is buried to the right of Josephine my guess would be that Martha Williams' plot is on the side near her husband. To the left and behind Josephine's grave is that of her father David S. Hanna. Because of this I would guess that my Great(X3) Grandmother Elizabeth Hanna's plot is to the left of Josephine.

	Possible location of my Great(X3) Grandmother Elizabeth ( Williams ) Hanna's grave at the Hanna Cemetery in Cherokee Texas. Wife of Jesse P. Hanna and first cousin of Captain Johnny Williams.

	Close-up of headstone of Sarah E. ( Hardin/Grimes ) Hanna at Old Bowser Bend Cemetery. Second wife of my Great Great Grandfather Robert M. Hanna. Robert is said by some family members to be buried at this cemetery but there isn't a headstone there with his name on it. The reverse side of this headstone is blank so possibly Robert is buried on the other side of this headstone.
